Mr McCaulley will have responsibility for the company’s activities in the reconstructive devices market, including global marketing and sales in the Americas. He will report to David Dvorak, Zimmer Holdings president and CEO.

Mr McCaulley most recently served as president and CEO of the health division of Wolters Kluwer, the provider of scientific information and workflow solutions for healthcare professionals, providers, payors and the pharmaceutical industry.
